Die Nominierungen zu den Nebula-Awards 2012

Na sowas, da hät­te ich doch fast die Nebu­la-Nomi­nie­run­gen über­se­hen. Unent­schuld­bar. Aber immer­hin lie­fe­re ich sie jetzt nach. :o)

Die Ver­lei­hung wird im Rah­men der dies­jäh­ri­gen 47. Nebu­la-Con­ven­ti­on im Hyatt Regen­cy Crys­tal City in Arling­ton, Vir­gi­nia statt­fin­den. Wie man bereits ver­lau­ten ließ wird Con­nie Wil­lis dort auch für ihr Lebens­werk den 2011 Damon Knight Grand Mas­ter Award erhal­ten. Ver­lie­hen wer­den die Prei­se durch die Orga­ni­sa­ti­on »Sci­ence Fic­tion and Fan­ta­sy Wri­ters of Ame­ri­ca« oder auch kurz SFWA.

Viel­leicht soll­te Herr Szameit mal ein paar Bli­cke auf die Nomi­nier­ten wer­fen … :o)
